course that boasts many of London’s most iconic sights, it truly is
a day to remember.
Join the St John Ambulance team and you can be the
difference between lives lost and lives saved. You can
either get involved by applying for one of our charity places or,
if you were luckily enough to get a place in the London Marathon
2012 ballot, as an own place runner. What better way is there to
kick start that New Year’s resolution?
Charity place
If you would like one of our Gold Bond places, you can:
Apply Online
In return for a place, we ask you for £100 registration fee and
a pledge of £1,625 minimum sponsorship.
Own place runner
If you are luckily enough to receive a place in the ballot in
October, we would love to welcome you to our team.
We will be grateful for any funds you can raise for us – we
don’t ask for a minimum sponsorship or a registration
fee. You will receive the same support throughout you
training, fundraising and race as a charity place runner.
